Jadon Sancho ‘submits transfer request’ to escape Chelsea and Manchester United agreement

Jadon Sancho has expressed his desire to leave Manchester United and Chelsea and return to Borussia Dortmund in the summer, according to reports in Germany.

Sancho is currently spending the season on loan at Chelsea after leaving United in the closing stages of the transfer window last summer.The 25-year-old has shown flashes of promise since his move to Stamford Bridge but has struggled for consistency under Enzo Maresca.

As part of their loan agreement, Chelsea have an obligation to buy Sancho from United for £25 million, providing that they finish 14th or higher in the Premier League this season.

If they choose not to push ahead with signing the winger, Chelsea would need to pay United a £5m penalty clause.

It’s understood that Chelsea are intending to sign Sancho on a permanent deal at the end of the season, despite his fluctuating performance levels.
